Description
The European project ADMANTEX2i, which aims to promote internationalization and inteclusterization, organized on May 4th the first Best Practices Webinar.
The event was aimed at other cluster partnerships framed in the European Strategic Cluster Partnerships-Going International (ESCP-4i) and was attended by more than 20 participants, representing more than 10 ESCP4i partnerships and European clusters.
The main objectives of this webinar were:
• To share knowledge, learnings and experience on internationalization activities developed in third countries (outside EU);
• To share best practices and to discuss on common challenges and difficulties faced when approaching international markets;
• To seek synergies between the partnerships for the implementation of internationalization activities in selected markets.
The target markets of the ADMANTEX2i project will include North America (USA and Canada) and Asia (Japan), with the organization of 3 business missions in the next 2 years.
For the next 3 years, the 6 clusters that make up the ADMANTEX2i partnership - AEI TÈXTILS and ATEVAL SL in Spain, CITEVE and PRODUTECH in Portugal, Pôle EMC2 in France, and AFIL- Associazione Fabbrica Intelligente Lombardia in Italy - will work together for leading international cluster cooperation in advanced manufacturing and advanced textile materials.
